We have our own kit. The piston and rod were designed by us and for this build, it just used an offset ground factory crank. It ran pretty good N/A with stock cams and normal bolt-on's. We don't plan on seeing much of a gain from the small increase in displacement, but if were taking apart, why not add a little. The previous cars were able to get 17ci from a stroker, but it's not possible with the 5.0.

Cool! Cant wait to read and hear the cammed 5.0 results.

You may not need a huge cam with a power adder but it sure doesnt hurt to have one! lol A good friend of mine has a 426 300 with a 8.3L Whipple and he runs a cam in the 250/260's range. Now only if we could crack the TCM and spin the damn thing to 7k to take full advantage of it!

BTW Those are some crazy looking pistons!!!
